Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

I've been going back and forth between having a modded Wii, getting rid of it and just using Dolphin Emulator instead... then going back to a modded Wii cause Dolphin doesn't always work perfectly... then selling that Wii and trying Dolphin again... and so on and so on (just check my posts over the years... more insecure than a modern-day feminist whinging about... well everything! lol)

Anyways my latest modded Wii has died now and i've been thinking "Do i really want another one?" when to be honest the whole gimmick of motion controls has well and truly completely evaporated off me now and even though i had a bunch of both Wii and GameCube games all the times i was using an actual console or using Dolphin Emulator... really there's only 1 game that i actually really wanna keep and the rest i don't really care about anymore (plus i'm getting older now so having sh*tloads of games i never play no longer interests me)

To finally get to the point... as i'm sure i've well and truly said many times before, i'm only a novice when it comes to PC's. I'm pretty sure all the games i have on my PC aren't even using my PC's full potential when i play them, but that's because i simply have no idea what most of the settings even mean when i look at them or which is the best level of them to chose.

So to FINALLY get to the point... would one of you wonderful lovely nerds please be willing to do me a favour and (using my PC specs listed here) upload a copy of Dolphin Emulator 5.0 with all the best settings already programmed in it for a PAL copy of Luigi's Mansion to something like Mega.nz or Google Drive etc. so i can just simply download it, select my Luigi's Mansion ISO and just start playing it... because i wouldn't have a clue what to select? I'll be very appreciative if any of you could. Thanks.


My specs are...

Operating System : Windows 10 Home x64
SSD : Samsung 960 Evo M.2 250GB NVMe
Motherboard : Asrock B250M-pro4
CPU : i5-7500 @ 3.4GHz
GPU : Gigabyte GTX1060 G1 Gaming
RAM : 16GB (DDR4)
Power Supply : Antec 500W
Internal HD storage : 1.5TB
Capture Card : Elgato HD60 Pro

The default settings are the best. Besides, if a game needs any specifics to run correctly, those will get changed automatically once the game loads.

You should be fine with using the default settings. You might wanna use the latest master though, since Rumble for Luigi's Mansion was only fixed recently.

Got a Wavebird controller so... yeah  Thanks for the advice though.

Since the Wii is dead, you can take the Bluetooth chip out of it and wire it up to your computer to act as a perfect connection for Wiimotes and stuff for Wii games. There's a tutorial somewhere here: https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-ho...c-usb-port

As said above, use the latest dev build at all cost. 5.0 stable is old now, and major, really major updates came after.

For Luigi's Mansion, you won't have any issue with the default settings. Expect Luigi's mouth flickering in the intro cutscene when he's walking in the woods, disable Dual Core to fix that.

To my knowledge, the remaining graphical glitches/inaccuracies are in a bathroom, in the mirror. It moves as you move.



The other one is the live Mario painting missing the blurred effect, as showed in the Dolphin Wiki here : https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?t...trait_Blur

The mirrors should work fine in latest builds. The missing portrait blur... I wonder...

Verified that the mirrors are working fine.

Really ?? I just tried the latest build, I still have the mirror glitch. I tried every settings. I did OpenGL and D3D 11.
